FAMIS

Success By 6
Insurance for Children Project


The Project has successfully helped to enroll over 3,330 children in Virginia’s health insurance programs, FAMIS, FAMIS Plus and Medicaid.

Due to the success of the project and excellent community support, 95% - 100% of eligible children in Planning District Ten, Albemarle, Charlottesville, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, and Nelson, are enrolled in one of these programs.

As we have successfully reached our goals, the project concludes on June 30, 2006. Our exceptional community partners will continue to assist families with applications.
